About Pierre Creamer

  • Pierre Creamer (born July 6, 1944) is a Canadian former ice hockey coach.
  • He was head coach of the Pittsburgh Penguins during the 1987–88 NHL season. Creamer was born in Chomedey, Quebec.
  • He is the brother-in-law of former NHL star Mike Bossy. Creamer previously coached the Sherbrooke Canadiens, the American Hockey League affiliate of the Montreal Canadiens.
  • He led the team to a Calder Cup championship in his first year behind the bench and ended his three-year tenure with a 120-104-4 record.
  • Creamer had also held a job as coach of the Verdun Juniors of the QMJHL.[1] Despite coaching a Mario Lemieux-led team that finished fourth in goals scored, Creamer's 1987-88 Penguins struggled defensively and finished last in the Patrick Division.
  • He was relieved of his position at season's end; Creamer is currently the only "one year wonder" coach in NHL history to have a winning record.[2]
